Should the Raiders bench Derek Carr? RaiderNation
The Las Vegas Raiders may be considering benching quarterback Derek Carr, according to reports. Carr was abysmal in Saturday’s loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, completing just 53.3% of his passing attempts while throwing for 174 yards, one touchdown, and three second-half interceptions. The Raiders should consider benching Carr in order to protect their future interests and head coach Josh McDaniels isn’t ruling out the possibility.
That’s not exactly a ringing endorsement. Carr is currently playing abysmal football. Carr has been a turnover machine that’s thrown at least one interception in five consecutive contests. Carr has thrown nine interceptions since Week 12, which leads the NFL across that time frame. Carr hasn’t completed 60-plus-percent of his passing attempts since a late-November victory over the Seattle Seahawks.
It’s worth noting the Raiders don’t roster a particularly inspiring option behind Carr. The relatively inexperiencedserves as Las Vegas’ No. 2 quarterback. The 26-year-old Stidham has attempted 61 career passes. Stidham has completed just 52.5% of his passing attempts. He’s also thrown more career interceptions than touchdowns .
